I'm Alive!!!
this guy may've been like Rain Man or something, but he was right!
had 12ft drifts all over my house & power was out all weekend.
but for those who missed us (not that i expect that to be many people, if any), me & the wife are fine

12 ft drifts - 
. Hope that's not a sign of what the winter is going to be like - could be a long, cold one.

Yeah,,that front was a weird one! I live close to St.Louis,,That front piled snow north west of us,,as it moved South and east it turned to heavy rain.As it approached St louis it was just early enough in the morning that it kind of fizzled out barely giving us some scattered showers. A little later in the day it regained its strength and caused flash floods in Louisville Ky.!!All we really got was A.M. temps in the 40's and a high of 63,,down from 80's the day before. Looks like we are in for weird weather this year!!

But being's how they can't forecast weather for tomorrow, take it for what it's worth.

^^ 
maybe the same guy
yeah, we both do. the scenery is great here & there's a ton of stuff to do, but the weather's only good for about 4-5 months out of the year
and yeah... SURPRISE! remember the tiny Korean gal i brought with me a few times before i left? somehow i convinced her to stick around for a long time.
we got married in Jan before we left TX.
you & Leah together yet?
same here!
yep - the end of December sounds like a good time to start snowing & be done by Feb. man, i miss TN
y'all alright?
that's what i said when i got my assignment. they actually call the Black Hills the 'banana belt' because we get the best weather around & it's always a few degrees warmer 
dude, my office had a field day with that vid on Thurs

Don't forget, having plenty of pizza and Chinese food on hand will guarantee survival in even the coldest weather....
